>Description:
pkg_regress fails to run tests with the following message
   
   mktemp: too few X's in template `pkg_regress'

This is a relevant line in pkgtools/pkg_regress/files/pkg_regress.sh:94
   TEST_OUTFILE=`mktemp -t pkg_regress` || exit 1

mktemp --version
mktemp (GNU coreutils) 8.5

Also a man page says "-t" is deprecated
   -t     interpret TEMPLATE as a single file name component, relative to a 
directory: $TMPDIR, if  set; else the directory specified via -p; else /tmp 
[deprecated]

>How-To-Repeat:
Install pkgtools/pkg_regress
and run
pkg_regress

>Fix:
I added run-time dependencies on sysutils/mktemp in
pkgtools/pkg_regress/Makefile
